About Michelle Cavigliano – Michelle Cavigliano of My Zoetrope is a silly girl with silly daydreams who works as a pattern designer for a risque fashion company by day, and wanders around Brooklyn with her camera and sketchbook by night. You can view more of her work on her website or in her Etsy Shop. Her blog is updated pretty frequently with adventures of the imaginary kind on paper, and of the tasty kind in the kitchen.
1. How do you describe your work?
Cute, silly, bright, and happy in an evil or slightly twisted way, with perhaps a dash of pretty?
2. What are your inspirations in your art and life?
Music, the bustle of Manhattan, the calmness of Brooklyn, vegan food, patterns and color, cuteness, trips to the middle of nowhere with nothing but nature surrounding me, and all the imaginary possibilities.
3. What do you do to help feed your soul?
I tend to have a lot of different projects going on at once, and usually one project will spawn another. The busier I am, the more creative I feel (and of course, leaving me with not enough hours in the day to do all I intend). I hide out at coffee shops and doodle a lot. I’m an avid concert-goer, especially in the summertime, and that tends to keep me in a pretty constant happy mood. Other things I find pretty awesome, and which often spark something in my noggin are people-watching in the park, walks at twilight, the internet, my kitty Miles, and my favorite burlesque figure drawing class.
